    Long before the telegram from the 3rd Ukrainian Infantry Division, Yamolenko of the 4th Ukrainian Infantry Division had already sent a telegram announcing the good news to the former enemy headquarters in Kharkov. The 4th Infantry Division surrounded a Japanese infantry brigade.  The news made both Simon Petliura and von Neuhaus happy. The performance of the 4th Infantry Division led by Andrei Andropovich Yarmolenko, a former principal of Kharkiv National Middle School, was obviously outstanding.  It was beyond the expectations of the commander-in-chief of the National Army.  (None., pop-up window wwwdyzww No. 1, Chinese, Chinese, website

    This is why Simon Petliura ordered the 3rd Koval Infantry Division in the forest to move south along with Mihalik's 2nd Infantry Division in the middle in the name of the former enemy headquarters, with the main force concentrated towards Yarmolenko's infantry.  The reason why the 4th Division moved closer was not only to prepare to launch a southern counterattack with the 47th German Reserve Infantry Division heading north for reinforcements later that day, but also to help Yarmolenko's 4th Division to encircle the Japanese infantry brigade.  It would be best to annihilate them all in one go!

    If this is true, Major General von Neuhaus is even preparing to launch a counterattack at the east gate at the same time, eating up the Japanese infantry brigade occupying the Kharkov Bridge, thus completely cutting off the logistics of the Japanese Mutoh Brigade going south.  Line of protection and retreat

    "My dear Sven, Koval said that two Japanese infantry brigades appeared in front of him Is this possible?" the Ukrainian Prime Minister asked the German major general on the side.

    "Of course it's impossible. The three main brigades of Muto's brigade have already moved south. They should be approaching the southeastern outskirts of the city by now. The Japanese troops left in the forests on the northern front are at most 3 brigades. Yamolenko's 4th Division  If a Japanese infantry brigade is surrounded, excluding the Japanese brigade occupying the Kharkov Bridge, the Japanese army facing Koval is at best an infantry brigade?" The German major general shook his head disdainfully and gave a negative answer.

    "Then what should we do now? Koval's 3rd Division seems unable to withstand the Japanese outflanking troops that appear on their flanks It will take time for Yamolenko's 4th Division to eat up the Japanese infantry brigade in the encirclement.  " The Ukrainian Prime Minister was a little undecided for a while.

    "It's very simple Let Koval's 3rd Infantry Division withdraw from the battle and move closer to the south. It must move closer to Yarmolenko's 4th Division and Michalik's 2nd Division. Don't get entangled with the Japanese roundabout troops on the northern front.  The other side is at best an infantry brigade, and they are exhausted from the long journey and can't do anything. The Ukrainian National Army in the forest's first task is to concentrate and move closer to the south. Isn't Yarmolenko going to launch an attack soon?  For a general attack, it¡¯s enough to kill the Japanese infantry brigade in the south!¡±

    Major General von Neuhaus, the frontline commander of the German-Ukrainian forces, is obviously a guy who can quickly judge and make choices. He is really not very optimistic about the combat effectiveness of the Ukrainian National Army, especially those generals with guerrilla origins, who can only pick weak persimmons.  A guy who can't chew hard bones. That Koval is simply an uneducated master. He will scream for support whenever there is any trouble in front of the enemy. He is far inferior to Yamolenko of the 4th Division who was a middle school principal

    "Reporting to the Major General, the 2nd detachment of the first armored train detachment telegraphed that Captain Rommel commanded 4 companies of troops and only surrounded one Japanese cavalry squadron by the Krasnorad Bridge in the south. The Japanese Yonezawa Cavalry Regiment at least 2  The troops of a cavalry brigade took the opportunity to break through the railway line at the intersection and had penetrated to the east of the railway. Lieutenant Colonel von Rundstedt said that although his armored train had dealt a heavy blow to the enemy's rear cavalry, it was still tasked with intercepting and blocking the railway line.  But it was not completed. The lieutenant colonel is waiting for further instructions from the former enemy headquarters!¡±

    A German captain and staff officer sent bad news. The 1st and 2nd detachments of the Southern Line Armored Train failed to lure the enemy. Rommel commanded 4 infantry companies and only surrounded a cavalry squadron of the opponent by the Krasnorad Bridge, while the Yonezawa cavalry  However, the main force of the 4th Regiment took the opportunity to cross the railway again from the original breakthrough to the south of the railway line. Obviously, the opponent's goal was to join the main force of the Muto Brigade going south on the East Road

    "Send a report to Lieutenant Colonel von Rundstedt's armored train unit, requesting them to strengthen inspections of the railway line to ensure the safety of the railway line from the Krasnorad Railway Bridge to the Lopan River Bridge in the southern part of Kharkiv  Don't worry about the harassment of the Allied Air Force in the sky. If the opponent sends out heavy bombers, our armored train troops cannot stop them. The key is to withstand the Japanese ground troops that are encircling them. Rommel's infantry should not be reluctant to fight and eat the opponent's as soon as possible.  The cavalry squadron is back!"

    Although von Neuhaus was only the division commander of the 47th German Reserve Infantry Division, he also served as the deputy chief of staff of the former enemy headquarters of the German-Ukrainian Allied Forces, and was the commander-in-chief of the former enemy.  At this critical moment when General Fran?ois was unable to see anything due to a recurrence of his heart disease, this man assumed the heavy responsibility of the frontline commander of the Kharkov battlefield. The 1st and 2nd Ironclad Detachments of the German Army in Ukraine were actually returned to the army.  He regulates and directs.

    Of course, the German Armored Detachment 1 is responsible for patrolling and protecting subordinates.The nearly 200 kilometers of railway line from Erkov to Dnipropetrovsk, while the second armored train detachment is responsible for inspecting the nearly 400 kilometers of railway line from Krasnorad hub to Kiev Speaking of which, so  The long railway line has only four armored train units patrolling and guarding it, which is quite stretched. However, the coalition obviously does not intend to completely destroy the railway lines and bridges in Ukraine. This makes the former enemy headquarters of the German-Ukrainian coalition actually put 2  An armored detachment is used as a mobile force along the railway.

    "Your Majesty General when will the main force of your 47th Reserve Infantry Division be able to go north for reinforcements? I think it's best to get reinforcements before the Japanese cut off the railway. Otherwise, once the railway is cut off, repairs will have to waste a lot of time.  And energy" The Ukrainian Prime Minister was a little uneasy because of the Japanese roundabout troops on the southern front. The combat effectiveness of the Muto brigade should not be underestimated. His three infantry divisions' attacks in the forest failed to shake the opponent's position. As for the Japanese  Simon Petliura did not really pay attention to the cavalry regiment that came around in a long circle

    "The combat effectiveness of the Japanese cavalry regiment cannot be underestimated. However, in order to bypass the fast Lopan River, they actually ran a long distance to Porodukshiv in an attempt to confuse our sight and distract our attention. This plan is doomed to fail.  The focus of our army's defense and operations is along the Kharkiv-Krasnorad-Dnipropetrovsk railway line and the K11 hub. Although the location of Porodukshiv is important, it is not important enough for us to rush to recover it.  " Major General von Neuhaus obviously valued the Yonezawa Cavalry Regiment no less than the Muto Brigade.
